Amazed and Confused

I love Politics
And have been watching in
Confusion and Amazement
At Donald Trumps election as President

The first address he gave
Was 1 with a rather conciliatory tone
Expressing a will to govern for all

But it seems to have brought Riot's
And lawless to the streets 
From opposition supporters
Who profess he is divisive

If Trump has lost the Election
Would his supporters have marched or rioted?
Or would they have just accepted the result
And moved on

The Man has yet to take office
But seemingly will never be given a chance
Remind you of man named Obama

Hard to succeed when no 1 wants
1 to succeed or puts aside personal preferences
For the greater good
